Description

"Tear in Mother's Eye (Psalm 116)” is a tender, deeply personal ballad that captures the quiet, heartbreaking moments of saying goodbye to a loved one. Set beside a mother’s bedside in her final days, the song unfolds with raw honesty—telling the story of a son returning home, clinging to memories, and searching for connection as time slips away.

Through soft, vivid storytelling, familiar songs become lifelines—bridging the distance between who she was and who she’s becoming. Each verse carries the weight of love, helplessness, and devotion, as music becomes the last shared language between mother and child.

The emotional core of the song arrives in a single, unforgettable moment: a tear forming in her eye three whispered words anyone would love to hear. In that quiet expression, everything is said—recognition, love, and a connection that never truly fades.

With its gentle delivery and powerful narrative, “Tear in Mother's Eye” speaks to anyone who has faced loss, held a loved one’s hand in their final moments, or longed for one last sign that they were still there. It’s not just a song—it’s a memory, a farewell, and a lasting reminder that love endures, even in silence.

Lyrics

Tear in Mother's Eye (Psalm 116)

Verse 1
Mom lay dying but didn’t know
Wouldn’t know long if we told her
Had no idea the visiting souls
Came from hospice to tend her

Verse 2
I flew back home to see my mom
But not much of her left to see
I leaned in, whispered my name
Mom didn’t remember me

Chorus
Mom, it’s me, I came back home
I’m here for you, Mom, just for you
I’ll sing our songs, share sweet memories
Mom, what else can I do?

Verse 3
Four days I sang by her bedside
She whispered “Home on the Range”
“It Is Well With My Soul”
For a moment she was Mom again

Chorus
Mom, it’s me, I came back home
I’m here for you, Mom, just for you
I’ll sing our songs, share sweet memories
Mom, what else can I do?

Verse 4
My daughter stepped in, began to sing
Hadn’t sung with me since knee-high
I turned back to Mom and saw it there
A tear in the corner of her eye

Chorus
You know me, I came back home
I’m here for you, Mom, just for you
I’ll sing our songs, share sweet memories
Mom, what else can I do?

Bridge
Out of songs and out of wind
I leaned in close to hear her
A painful pause, a single wet eye
Then her lips moved in a whisper

Soft (Spoken)
Too soft to hear
By any but me

“I love you too, Mom”

And she still loves me

Final Chorus
Mom, it’s me, I came back home
I’m here for you, just you
I’ll sing our songs, share sweet memories
Mom, I don’t know what else to do

Outro (Soft)
Too soft to hear
By any but me

“I love you too, Mom”

And she still loves me
